By Steve CarrMay 02, 2011

ASUNM Lobo Spirit, in collaboration with the Student Activities Center, will host the annual UNM Ring Ceremony Wednesday, May 4, at 6:30 p.m. in the UNM Sub ballrooms. The ceremony is for students who purchased a UNM ring and their families. It is designed to teach the buyer about the traditions and symbolism of the ring.

During the ceremony, participants dip their hand in red dye and the color stays on their hand for about a day during which time, students are able to show their red hands at local businesses in exchange for discounts.
